Bent my first barrel

[FEDUPWBS]

As many of you no Im no rookie to this hobby wanted to share one of my mistakes.
Not paying attention I was pissed off at my dog fpr chewing up one of my big$ murphys handmade pistol grips so went out to barrel a build. It wouldnt go right in felt like press was bypassing so I kept pumping but never looked past the trunnion. When I did well look at the pic. Live and learn all I did to make it drop in was add a little heat to the trunnion and the bastard slid right in. Live and learn guess I get to learn how to straighten my first barrel. The bend is at the gasblock so if it wont go straight ist going to be a pistol So no worries just once again dont be careless or work or drive when ANGRY or TIRED its not smart.

Oh no, real bad deal with the grip.

[thedrickel]

[sloguy]

[Grouch]

[FEDUPWBS]

Thanks SLOGUY at least I dont have to worry if it wont go straight

Fed,
Just bend it a little more and shoot around conners. Hey it worked for the Germans.
Not to accurate tho. J/K.

I know of a restaurant down here that will take your dog (I have to look over my shoulder and make sure my wife doesn't see this, she loves our dogs)

If you want send it my way and i'll turn it for you along with the other one i started up there.

That or sloguy can....

and WOW that was an awesome grip....and to have that happen...that just sucks.

Man... sorry to hear about the grip that was gorgeous.... so smooth it felt like bone...

think you can fix it (kinda) wth some resin and alot of love?

looks like you're gonna have another ak pistol wether you want it or not... At least the damage is not on the chamber end.

That dog's got some serious chompers.

long time ago i house sat for a guy that had dogs that turned doorknobs. freakin mutts were like velociraptors. they could power thru the locked doorknobs. just twisted em till the knob broke or until the lock failed. left teeth marks in the brass. crazy dogs. this one, "sasha" was the biggest german shepard ive ever seen. it once was walking by the coffee table and swung her tail into a full 2 liter bottle of soda. sent it across the room and into another dogs head. didnt even notice it had wagged the bottle off the table.

my dog doesnt chew anything. im so thankful. hes not much of a barker either. im lucky all the way around.

Bummer!

I have an easy fix, at least for the anger... Fix the barrel, shoot the dog with the gun! problem solved.
